    <p>My personal experience started back in elementary using Logo Writer (which in a way has evolved into Scratch), granted I was a little kid and computers where not as awesome as they are nowadays, but for the time being it took me places I hadn't been before... I think that's how I got hooked in the business... I could say that it was these first impressions based on such simplicity and coolness that made the goods that stick into my head for life. That's how basics in teaching programming should be taught... a simple process that yearns magic.</p> <p>Back to my first CS 101, I started with notions of what an algorithm was by building a Tequila Sunrise (a step by step process that could be repeated at any time with the right ingredients, that will result in the same output), from there we move on to basic math functions using Scheme (like EHaskins was saying... start small and then build up), and from there to notions of loops, Boolean logic, structures and then building into concepts of objects and some simulation executions...</p> <p>One of the good things about this approach is that language was not a goal but just a tool in the process of learning the concepts and basics of programming (just like operators, functions and else are in mathematics).</p> <p>IMHO learning the basics of programming and creating a foundation is probably the best thing you could teach your brother, once the goal is covered then u can move on into a more general use language like python and teach them higher concepts like architecture and design patterns (make them natural in the process so he will get use to good practices from early stages and will see them as part of the process)... we are far from reinventing the warm water, but we always have to start by creating fire.</p> <p>From there on the sky is the limit!</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
